my country banned

[alexmuriel5]

Hi we irainian gamers really love Origin products mostly battlefield 1 AND 4 but we cant access to our account please fix this problem

its very bad that the society compares with gaming ..you know its not related at all and we cant play because of nothing.

the reason that youve never seen a post like this is that IR gamers mostly are not good at english and they dont even know where to write their problems ...we all LOVE ORIGIN and really have desire to get back to our games again ...we will be so so so thankful if you fix this problem as soon as possible . thanks

Hello @alexmuriel5

In compliance with US embargoes and sanctions laws, Origin is not available in Cuba, Iran, Myanmar, North Korea, Sudan, Syria and Ukraine (Crimea region).

Update:

Access for players in Myanmar has since been restored.

so why Valve has not banned Iranians from steam but origin has done this on origin?

Hey @Arman5659 & @alexmuriel5,

as fellow gamer I feel for you, but unfortunately, I can only provide you with the same answer @IIPrest0nII already posted.

In order to comply with U.S. law, the EA services may not be enjoyed in Iran.

Sorry that I have to be the bearer of bad news, but the best I can do here is just giving you an honest answer.

Cheers

Why origin just dont ban the site and let the app free ???

just like what steam is doing

in iran only their site is banned no app , we can easily access to our steam app on pc with no limitation  or access deny

cause the app has not been banned

would you please doing something just like them for us

steam site: banned      steam app: not banned

origin site: banned       origin app: banned (at least somebody tells origin to open up this one)

Well that's very childish.We had access to EA's services before now that we had a deal with 5+1 and sanctions were supposed to be lifted,EA decided to toughen sanctions.ridiculous.

Then why still Steam hasn't done that?its a bigger community and more popular than you(EA). You are losing a large group of players.

Shame.

 What we Gamers are gonna do with Origin and it's games? Produce nuclear weapons? We are not harmful .  I paid more than +$200 and I can't simply access them. Question is, will you refund our PAID money? Thanks a lot,

Best regards.
